Manchester City vs Southampton prediction
In the latest round of Premier League fixtures, Manchester City will host struggling Southampton at the Etihad. In their last outing in the league, the Champions earned a controversial 2-1 win over Wolves at the Molineux to stay in touch with Liverpool in first place.
Pep Guardiola’s team has been in fine form, recording four wins in their last 5 matches in all competitions. A win against the Saints will make it five wins on the bounce for the Manchester outfit.
Wolves have not won in five matches across all competitions and it is highly likely that their woes will continue with the visit to Manchester. Last time out, the Saints surrendered a 2-0 lead to Leicester and lost 3-2 in what could be described as a capitulation.
Manchester City are very likely to run the rule of this match up for the entire duration with a lot of goals in the offing. Therefore, we are backing the home side to win with no less than three total goals as our main Manchester City vs Southampton prediction.
